Enoshima Coastline Trees


Took this shot and the next few from atop of the island. The rocks along the coast were covered with a moss-like grass. Love the dark green!


Thank goodness for telephoto lenses! Was able to catch a shot of this Japanese hawk (tabi) while it was resting on a tree stretching out over the ocean.


This shot and the one below are basically the same. Like out changing the lighting and tones on the computer creates a completely different mood.



This well-pruned tree was in front of a Japanese-style B&B. The building exterior has traditional sandy-type mud on the outer walls. Love the earthy tones of traditional Japanese architecture. 


The B&B has a really cool door. The design makes me imagine I might be looking at a door of a home in New Mexico or Arizona as opposed to Japan.


Although I am not good at reading and writing Japanese kanji characters, I love any character written in the style of a brush. They seem so artistic to me. This kanji is read as "ten" and means heaven. It was simply from a flag in front of a tenpura noodle shop.
